After months of preparation and planning, today I bought an iPod.

I know, I know… some of you are patting me on the back, and others are shaking your heads. Basically, I’ve been living without music in my life since my miniDisc player quit working properly and I was about to die of deprivation. So a few months ago I decided to prepare for an iPod purchase. Prepare? Yes. Prepare. I transferred all of my existing CD’s to my hard drive, and I downloaded the album art for each. Yes. I know. This is a little bit crazy, but I love the art, so I digress. I told myself that as soon as I had finished, I would have put in enough time to justify the purchase.

I finished the task last month and I still didn’t buy it. I didn’t want to buy it online (don’t ask me why) and I didn’t want to make a special trip just to buy an iPod. So I waited until today, when I was visiting the Mid-Manhattan Library which is only three blocks from an electronics store.

I shot another scene for As the World Turns that airs on May 9th (check your local listings for the time). I seem to see a pattern here for ATWT in which I play a bellhop who brings room service for “special occassions”.

Be sure to watch the show and then flood CBS with adoring fan mail, screaming for more storylines involving that dashing young bellhop…

No seriously, send the email…

But wait till the show airs…
